John Hyacinth Talbot (1794 – 30 April 1868) of Ballytrent, County Wexford [1] was an Irish Repeal Association politician.[2]

He was the son of Matthew Talbot of Ballynamony, County Wexford and Jane, Countess d'Arcy and educated at Stonyhurst College, Lancashire.[2]

Talbot was first elected Repeal Association MP for New Ross at the 1832 general election and held the seat until 1841, when he did not seek re-election. He sat again for the seat from 1847 to 1852 when, again, he did not seek re-election.[2][3] He was selected as High Sheriff of Wexford for 1855.[4]

He was a member of the Reform Club.[2]

He married twice. In 1822, he married Anne Eliza Redmond, daughter of Walter Redmond of Wexford, a banker.[5] In 1851 he married Eliza, daughter of Sir John Power, Bt, with whom he had a son and heir, also John Hyacinth Talbot, born in 1851.
